Republican pol gets arrested after getting him some beef

You can always expect two things during the campaign season. A lot of free hotdog and hamburger dinners and numerous arrests. The free dinners have already started so you kind of knew it was only a matter of time before the arrests started happening and sure enough, it happened last night in Alabama. State Rep district 12 candidate and current West Point Mayor Kenneth (bottoms up) Kilgo(R) was arrested last night as he came out of a popular steakhouse in West Point, Al. on suspicion of public intoxication. Now like that wasn't bad enough, Cullman County of which West Point is located in, is a dry county with the notable exception of Terri Pines Country Club. Which is about ten miles away from the steakhouse that Mr Kilgo was arrested at last night. So that means, Mayor Kilgo probably had been out playing golf at Terri Pines and had a few too many to drink. This is horrible news for the Alabama GOP, because Mr Kilgo was one of their top recruits(prior to his little escapade last night) to run in a district that is currently represented by a black democrat who was recently profiled in the New York Times but it also gave John McCain over 75% of the vote two years ago. So in summary, a white male republican who is running against State Rep James Fields(D) probably got drunk playing golf at a country club and he then made his way to a steakhouse where he ate him a steak and managed to get himself arrested after he nearly stumbled onto numerous customers. Excuse me while I go get a fork. I think I smell a well done politician...
